Chapter 143: Big Delivery

Trading for five days in a row.

Xu Dong couldn't stand it anymore, mainly because he was too tired. Boss Duan still had a few subordinates to help him, but he was a loner here and had to do everything by himself.

In addition, Panjiayuan's traffic volume increased significantly on the weekends, and the two parties agreed to suspend trading for two days on weekends and continue next week.

When Xu Dong came back with his tired body, he found that there were two more guests at home.

"Lingling, you and Xiaoxu are here."

"Well, we took the high-speed rail here after school. We'll be there in twenty minutes." Ma Lingling replied with a smile.

The two of them apparently missed their grandparents, but in fact they came here to eat and drink. Xu Ting also knew that her brother's family had good living conditions and there was no shortage of food, so she didn't stop them.

"Okay, come here often in the future. Dabao and the others have missed you for a long time. By the way, I will help your cousins ​​with their classes. Thank you, uncle."

Girls are very sensitive, Xu Dong said this specifically.

Ma Lingling nodded heavily and smiled even happier.

At dinner time, there was nothing special about anything else. It was just a bowl full of large dried shrimps braised in spicy oil, which made people appetizing at the first sight.

Xu's mother scooped a big spoonful for each of Ma Lingling and her brother, "Your uncle brought the shrimps back. There are still many at home, so you two can eat them with confidence!"

"Yes, cousin, my father bought a sack of shrimps and I can't finish them." Lele said happily. She and her sister usually like to eat prawns the most.

Xu Dong echoed: "When you two go back, ask your grandma to pack a bag for you and take it back so that your parents can have a taste."

"Thank you, uncle, thank you grandma." Ma Lingling quickly thanked her.

"We are all one family, how can I say thank you!" Father Xu touched his grandson's head.

Early on Saturday morning, Xu Dong rarely slept in. Today was the day for him to give gifts to Section Chief Li and Director Cao.

Arriving at Section Chief Li's house, Xu Dong delivered a basket of strawberries, some tomatoes, two cantaloupes, and finally fifty kilograms of dried krill.

"Xiao Xu, where did you get these dried shrimps?" Section Chief Li asked curiously.

"Recently, a large amount of seafood and dried shrimps came over from Yangcheng. It is said that they are Antarctic krill, which are more nutritious than beef. I also grabbed some."

"Really? How much does this shrimp cost per pound?"

"The market price is three thousand two thousand, but you definitely can't buy it with money. You can only exchange it with things." Xu Dong replied.

Aunt Li came over and grabbed a handful of shrimps and said pleasantly: "The quality of the shrimps is quite good, which is quite rare. It's such a big bag. If you save some money, you can probably eat it for more than half a year."

"Auntie still has vision."

"Okay, I've collected the things. Come back later and I won't get the shrimp for nothing." Section Chief Li said with a smile.

"How can I, Uncle Li, consider the shrimp as my filial piety to you!" Xu Dong said politely.

Section Chief Li shook his head: "It's worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. I'm not that proud. If you can think of me if you have good things, I'll be very satisfied."

Xu Dong admired Section Chief Li for this. He was very measured in everything, taking what should be taken and never reaching out randomly for what should not be taken.

"Okay, you always have the final say."

"Don't forget about Director Cao," Section Chief Li reminded specifically.

"Don't worry, I won't forget it."

After leaving Section Chief Li's house, the next stop was Director Cao's house. Xu Dong brought over a whole box of milk powder, as well as fifty kilograms of dried krill.

Mrs. Cao looked happy: "Xiao Xu, aunt doesn't even know what to say. Your dried shrimps have really helped me a lot."

"Aunt Cao, what happened?" Xu Dong asked concerned.

"Alas..." Section Chief Cao sighed and explained helpfully: "The grandchildren at home are clamoring for meat all day long, and your aunt is almost worried to death."

Director Cao has two sons and one daughter. The eldest is a civil servant, the second is a section chief in a state-owned enterprise in Jizhou next door, and the only daughter is a university teacher.

"Haha, my family is the same. If Yunyun and the others like to eat shrimp, then I will bring some over next time."

"Sorry to trouble you, Xiao Xu!" Mrs. Cao said gratefully.

"No trouble, I got more goods this time."

When leaving, Xu Dong took away a bunch of cigarettes, wine and various valuable supplements, including a jar of saffron, which was just enough for his mother and wife to make water for drinking.

The last time they took the bird's nest and donkey-hide gelatin, Xu Ma and Yang Lina both said that the effect was pretty good. At least the quality of their sleep was much better. They didn't know if it was a psychological effect.

Next, Xu Dong sent another hundred kilograms of dried shrimps to Aunt Wang's house. After all, the other party had just helped him twice, once from Xu's father's side and once from his elder sister's side.

Wang Xiujuan accepted the offer with a few polite words without mentioning the price. Xu Dong was very satisfied, as long as the other party remembered the favor.

Finally, Xu Dong brought fifty kilograms of dried shrimps to Zhao Jian's house. Although Zhao Jian was not short of food, he was also short of meat.

"Old Xu, why did you call me back at noon? Do you want to exchange food again?

Let's talk about this later. We don't have much inventory left. I'll contact you when we have enough. "

Zhao Jian advised earnestly.

Xu Dong shook his head: "I'm not here to exchange for food this time. I plan to give you something good."

"Hey, then you can just send it to my house. Today is the weekend and your sister-in-law happens to be at home."

Zhao Jian has been very busy recently. The superiors are becoming more and more strict about the loss of grain storage. Their company now has one small meeting every three days and one big meeting every five days, and they have to work overtime even on weekends.

"I'm afraid that my sister-in-law won't accept it." Xu Dong looked embarrassed.

"Where did you put the things? You are so loud, I want to see what they are."

Xu Dong opened the trunk directly.

Zhao Jian immediately stepped forward to open the bag, and then said with a surprised look on his face: "Where did you get so many shrimps?"

"I have my own channels, so don't worry about it. This bag of dried shrimps is fifty kilograms. You can take it back quickly. I have to go home for dinner."

"I don't have that many things to trade with you." Zhao Jian said with a bitter smile.

"Let's charge it to the account first, and pay it back slowly later. I won't rush you." Xu Dong put on a very magnanimous look.

Zhao Jian nodded and said: "Okay, then I will accept it shamelessly. I won't be afraid of your laughter if I tell you. Your eldest nephew is making a fuss about eating meat all day long.

Your sister-in-law and I couldn't fight each other, and we couldn't scold him. I wanted to cut some flesh from myself and give it to him. "

"That's nonsense. Tell me after you finish eating and I can get some more for you." Xu Dong warned.

Although the climate today is arid, which is very conducive to food preservation, no matter how good the preservation conditions are, the shelf life of dried shrimps will not exceed two years, which is why Xu Dong is so generous.

"It seems that you got a lot of goods this time?" Zhao Jian said in surprise.

I originally thought that fifty pounds was enough, but judging from this person's attitude, fifty pounds might just be a fraction.

"It's okay, I won't miss your share anyway."

"Thank you very much."
